Cotter 0 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 McLeish hardly ever spent transfer fees and still gets slaughtered for his signings to this day. They say there's no such thing as a free transfer in football which is probably about right when wages, signing on fees, agent fees etc come into it. Aye I bet Stella and his agent ripped the arse right oot us with the signing on fee...Come on lad. He was a cheap mistake in a time of desperation like nothing we have ever known. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think i've slaughtered anyone, unless any non-positive comment at all is slaughtering. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to forgive me being a bit edgy about this kind of thing, it's just after all that we went through i'm horrified at the thought of any penny being wasted. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you're scared of making small mistakes, you will most certainly start to make big ones.

GovanAllan 0 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 If he had at least got a couple of games in the first team under his belt and wasn't up to it fair enough, but to sign the guy then never give him a chance or even a sniff just to punt him in January, smells like a manager who panicked a little and just bought to get faces in the door. Now before you start calling me an Ally basher he won't be the first or the last manager to panic but he was heading into Div3 with a capable squad they could've just let the boy try his luck elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
